Default How to check programmatically if Excel is installed?

Sorry, I missed that.
I am programming in old vbasic (ver.6).
My app needs to check if the Excel (any version) is installed on target
computer.

Hello,
What will be the best way to check if Excel is installed and what is the
name of executable?
Is it always excel.exe?
I think some older version had msexcel.exe, but I can be mistaken.
Your thoughts please,
Claire
